A car crash in Hackensack and an alert officer in Cedar Grove produced key evidence in the takedown of a mixed-gender crew believed responsible for 84 home burglaries in eight New Jersey counties and Rockland, authorities said.
Investigators armed with a search warrant found proceeds from one of the burglaries in a Mercedes-Benz GL 450 that Keith Perry, 38, of Teaneck crashed in March, state Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal said.
Perry was identified as a burglar who threatened an Englewood homeowner by making a motion with his hand inside his sweatshirt as though he had a gun and saying, “I’ll shoot you,” last December.
